delicious little cook

Chapter 791 Anxiety
In the afternoon, after school at the government office, the palace chief invited Gu Yun to go shopping. The two rode in the carriage together. After shopping, they went back to Prince Cheng's mansion for tea.

Gong Changji specially asked his servants to bring a thick cushion for Gu Yun's buttocks. Seeing Gu Yun's careful sitting down, Gong Changji laughed until his stomach ached.

"Being so hard, your parents can do it."

"What, this is an imperial decree. They beat me up according to the decree." Gu Yun settled his swollen butt securely, and breathed a sigh of relief, "The sage feels uncomfortable. He wants to find a place to vent his anger. Then I Your ass will suffer.”

"You sacrificed your own ass to make the whole thing come to a satisfactory conclusion. It's a worthwhile sacrifice. Thank you for your hard work. I'll replace the wine with tea, and I respect you."

The palace chief raised his teacup with a smile, and Gu Yun responded with a wry smile.

"This time we won a big victory, it can be regarded as a bad breath, and then there will be a rest for a few days, you should also turn your energy back to your studies and business, Bai Kou must have a new plan. "

"New plan? What aspect?" Gu Yun immediately felt vigilant, straightened his back, and sat upright.

"I think I probably know what the real secret agreement between her and the saint is."

"Say it!"

"I have to say something first, Bai Yehong was really the best head chef at that time."

"Or is it related to Bai Yehong?"

"The king came here with a mission because his country was torn apart and started a civil war, right?"

"Yes."

"Before that, when the old king was alive, the political and business exchanges between our two countries were already very frequent. Their country has always had a permanent mission here. Otherwise, the new king would not have thought of donating beauties and treasures to us. assistance."

"Yes, there have been exchanges between the two countries for many years."

"Bai Yehong made a new dish during this period. It is their country's national meat sauce. It must use their own spices to be authentic, but Bai Yehong insisted on using our own local spices to imitate this meat sauce. The taste of meat sauce once caused their envoys to cry at the banquet. Originally, when their king brought the envoys, this meat sauce was the established main course, but who would have guessed what happened next. "

"So you think the real pact is this pate?"

"The Bai family is a hereditary imperial chef. It is very reasonable to let Bai Kou cook in exchange for his freedom. It is much more reasonable than paying taxes of tens of thousands of taels. Besides, you have also said that Bai Kou bought a lot of plant seeds, many of which are plant seeds. Edible spices? To redo that meat sauce, we must first solve the problem of seasoning, and the climate of our two countries is completely different, I wonder if the big glass house in your workshop is used to grow vegetables?"

Gu Yun didn't speak for a long while, as if he was shocked by Gong Zhangji's words, it took him a long time to let out a sigh of relief.

"Bai Kou is ready for everything."

"Yeah, she uses your workshop to make a lot of money for you, and at the same time, she does some of her private affairs, but you can't be angry with her. If she really manages to do this private affairs, she will also do it to you." Bringing a lot of wealth, if those exotic spices are really grown, they will be snapped up for the same price as meat."

Gong Changji smiled gently, and took the teapot to fill up the tea for both of them.

"You really have to think about it now. What should you do with Bai Kou? Do you want to sabotage her plan, or pretend you don't know anything, and watch her follow her plan step by step? And after you get married in the future, by You personally ordered her to be resident in the factory? To be her justifiable shopkeeper Bai?"

"Destruction? How can it be destroyed? As you said, she will go to the factory after I get married. How can I restrict her? If she knows that I want to destroy her so that she can't get rid of her status as an official servant for the rest of her life, she You must hate me to death, but I don't know what means she will take to get back, it's probably a trivial matter to be ruined by her."

"I absolutely believe it." Gong Zhangji laughed, "Then your decision is to pretend not to know and not interfere and let her be free?"

"Yeah, let her go." Gu Yun smiled wryly, "Other than that, what else can I do?"

"Poor boy, do you want to save a piece for dinner? How many drinks shall we have?"

"Okay! I want to drink your treasure."

"Good idea! You want to drink good wine after being injured like this? Only fruit wine is for you."

"Hmph, stingy, dishonest."

"No matter how nonsense you talk, I won't even give you fruit wine. You go home and drink tea. I see if you can get a drop of wine from Bai Kou."

Gu Yun puffed up his cheeks and sulked in the chair, the palace chief ignored him, and ordered his servants to arrange dinner, and went to the Duke Ye's mansion to inform Bai Kou.

After drinking and eating, Gu Yun returned home. The palace chief didn't give him much wine, so there was no smell of wine on his body, only when he opened his mouth to talk, he could smell a faint scent of fruity wine when he got closer.

After washing his hands and changing his clothes, Gu Yun first went to say goodnight to the elders, and then went back to the anteroom to read. Bai Kou was already working in the room, laying out a table and a floor ledger, and there were a few pages of drawings like ghostly symbols.

Gu Yun, who was supposed to go directly to his low cabinet, turned on his tiptoes halfway, and went to Bai Kou's side to steal some fragrance before going to his desk to read.

Although Bai Kou was harassed and interrupted her train of thought, she soon fell back into the various tasks at hand. Gu Yun was not as focused as her. In other words, the real content of the secret agreement must be one of these two possibilities, and in order to achieve the goal, he must be transferred to the workshop to work wholeheartedly.

Next year's spring, after the spring, there will be a marriage discussion. No matter how much you delay, I will definitely get married in the next year, and Bai Kou's time with him will probably end at that time. Will be officially transferred to the factory to be her shopkeeper Bai.

Thinking of this, Gu Yun lost his mind to read. He suddenly felt that he could understand Liang Zhongshan's mood. The importance of Lan Zhu to Liang Zhongshan was the same as that of Bai Kou to him, but Lan Zhu made a mistake. She cared too much about Liang Zhongshan's mood and didn't give Tong Mingli enough respect. Bai Kou would not show any disrespect to the young lady. The transfer to the factory was her greatest respect, and being able to do what she wanted to do would benefit both sides. people get hurt.

Discussing this topic with Gong Zhangji several times, they would always come back to the conclusion that no one was injured, but Gu Yun has always been worried about this word.

He felt he was bound to get hurt, and probably the only one who got hurt.

If Bai Kou is not by her side, what's the point of life? With her cleverness, the promise of her master, who is enough to be grateful to other officials and servants, is a ridiculous lie in her eyes. any sense.

The more Gu Yun thought about it, the more depressed he became, he dropped the book and sighed.

When Bai Kou heard the movement, she looked up at him strangely, seeing that he was fine, she lowered her head and continued to work.

Seeing that Bai Kou ignored him at all, Gu Yun lay down on the table in frustration, wanting to roll all over the floor.
